About Steem monsters...!!
Steemit, the blockchain gaming application, has recently announced the release of an alpha version of Steem Monsters. The trading card game has integrated RPG elements into its gameplay, making for a unique gaming experience using blockchain’s decentralized public ledger technology. The two lead developers on the project have finished creating the game’s cards, its art, website, and the functionality of the game.
The releasers of the game expanded to say that the technology isn’t yet able to do “everything we want,” but that the company’s current fundraising effort should help to further develop the game’s technologies, unlocking the “full potential of Steem Monsters.
Additionally, the official announcement outlines some of the key components of the game, including its current path of development, as well as the main features which make it a revolutionary gaming experience on the decentralized blockchain. Though it is true to say that the game has a lot of development left to integrate, the progress made thus far is significant enough to warrant attention from many within the blockchain community.
This guide will provide an introduction to both the game, and the technologies which make it up.
(Steem Monsters Concept)
Steem Monsters is a collectible RPG game operating on the Steem Blockchain, a platform hosting a variety of games on a decentralized and immutable network. The platform has already drawn significant interest from investors, but they aren’t the only company attempting to maximize blockchain technology to create a new type of game. Several new startups have taken their shot at the creation of RPG games on a decentralized network.
Eventually, the game will allow users to create accounts, purchase cards, and arrange them during tournaments where they will fight with other users’ monsters for dominance. Additionally, the site allows players to trade cards with other users in order to maximize the efficiency of their deck. Winners of tournaments are given “prizes and glory.”
In the future, the game’s developers seek to integrate more abilities, stacking items that level-up, and new cards to increase stats and provide players with unique abilities. Furthermore, the project is very likely to work to integrate a complex meta storyline and lore in order to further immerse gamers into the ecosystem of the RPG.
(ABOUT THIS GAME)
As the youngest heir of an ancient bloodline of proud Monster Keepers, you step out into the world to follow in your ancestors' footsteps. You will gather a party of monsters to grow and train. Meanwhile, a series of unsettling events worries the experienced Keepers of the Monster Sanctuary. This is the beginning of a journey to unravel the cause of this mystery that threatens the peace between humans and monsters.
Monster Sanctuary is the idea of combining monster collecting, turn based combat and metroidvania-like exploration. Any monster you encounter can become a part of your own party. Additional monsters provide a lot of tactical options in combat or allow you to overcome certain obstacles to explore new areas.
Every monster has a unique skill tree. This lets you individualize your monster to pursue different strategies. Feeding and equipping your monsters to improve their stats further emphasizes this aspect.
The combo system gives additional depth to the combat. Each individual hit increases the damage of the next moves within the same combat turn. The loot system challenges you to find the quickest and most efficient way to end a battle - rewarding you with better loot. Grind and find the best combo to earn the rarest monster eggs!
